Company trustee structure

If you choose a company (or corporate) trustee structure for your SMSF and there is more than one member in the fund, the following requirements will apply:

the fund must have four members or less

all members must be directors of the company that has been set up to act as the company trustee

all directors must be members of the fund

no member of the fund can be an employee of another member of the fund unless they are relatives

the company trustee and the directors cannot be paid for their services (except in limited circumstances).

If you are the only member of your fund you must be either the sole director or one of only two directors of the company trustee. You cannot be an employee of the other director and directors cannot be paid for their services (except in limited circumstances).

What happens after you set up an SMSF?

There's a lot that needs to be done to maintain your SMSF and keep on top of the administration and compliance obligations. The laws governing SMSFs are complex and can change frequently so you’ll need to keep up-to-date.

How we can help

SMSFs can be quite simple or quite complex, depending on your needs. There's a lot to consider, but you can outsource things like administration to save time so you can focus on what's important to you.
